Catholic Neurotheology [Hardback] by Andrew Newberg, Mary Clare Smith

'Catholic Neuroethology' addresses a variety of issues that have only begun to be discussed or have not yet been discussed at all. Newberg and Smith are both courageous and well-informed as they seek a dialogue between theology and neuroscience. In doing so, they bring together a variety of resources across disciplines, integrate them, and present them in a readily understandable manner. This book can serve as an excellent resource for theologians and neuroscientists, as well as other readers interested in the intersection of science and theology.
